Keyword Driven Testing Approach in Test Automation

Testing is an important element of the software development life cycle. Manual testing still constitutes a large portion of software testing, however, it is a time consuming process. To improve productivity and coverage, test automation has been introduced. Test automation allows companies to perform repeatable tests on an application, which reduces time and also improves the test coverage.

Why to automate?

Test automation or automated software testing helps to reduce the manual efforts to test same functionalities over and over again. Testing the same functionalities in repeated manner can increase boredom and sometimes it leads to testing shortcuts resulting in inaccurate testing while doing manual testing. Test automation helps to automate these repeated tasks and to execute these tests with 100% accuracy.

Also, the automation of repeatable tests helps QA Testing engineers focus on new functionalities within an application which increases test coverage.
